MARC RIZZO (SOULFLY/CAVALERA CONSPIRACY) - Guitarist Announced Release Date For His New Album "Rotation"

Soulfly/Cavalera Conspiracy guitarist Marc Rizzo has set the release date for his new LP "Rotation", in stores March 30th via Combat Records/EMP LABEL GROUP/AMPED in North America, and COMBAT/SPV in Europe.
"Rotation" is the 4th solo release for Rizzo, following 2004’s "Colossal Myopia", 2006’s "The Ultimate Devotion" (both released by legendary shred label Shrapanel), and the independently released 2010 LP "Legionnaire".


Produced by Chris “Zeuss” Harris (Hatebreed, Soulfly, Rob Zombie, Chimaira), and featuring cover art by Melody Myers (Escape The Fate), "Rotation" is a blistering showcase of Rizzo’s pummeling eclectic diversity, showcased on album tracks including “Spectral Intensities”, “Thrash Boogie”, and title track “Rotation”, combining Rizzo’s penchant for pummeling, low-end riffs, with thrash-intensive leads and heavy latin flavor.

“Marc’s an awesome guitar player. He’s a badass.” Says Ellefson. “So when Thom started talking to him about his new record, Zeuss sent over some tracks, and we were all really excited. And it just turned out to be a great, natural fit for the new incarnation of COMBAT. Marc is a brutal, heavy player, but so technically proficient and tasteful, and able to blend so many styles into what he does, whatever he’s doing, whether it’s Soulfly, Cavalera Conspiracy, or his solo stuff.”

Says Rizzo, “I spent a couple years talking to David and Thom (Hazaert) about releasing Rotation and when the COMBAT thing came up it just really felt right. I have known both David and Thom, literally for the better part of 2 decades, and I’m really excited to have such a killer team putting their stamp on my record.”

Rizzo will hit the road with Soulfly in the US (with Nile) in April, and will enter the studio to begin work on the new Soulfly record in January.
